Idina and Taye met as members of the original cast of Rent in the mid 90s. The roles made both of them famous. They married in 2003, and welcomed a son, Walker, in 2009. Reps for the couple confirmed to People, “Idina Menzel and Taye Diggs have jointly decided to separate at this time. Their primary focus and concern is for their son. We ask that you respect their privacy during this time.”

Taye and Idina have long seemed like one of the happiest couples in celebrity land, from their low profile to their affectionate red-carpet appearances. What a heartbreaker! Here’s a clip of Idina chatting about her husband just a few weeks ago:
